Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the specific embodiment of the present invention is described in further detail.
Figure 1 shows that the structural representation of the semiconductor solar cell based on interface polaron effect that the present invention makes, this battery forms centrosymmetric structure by two identical electro-conductive glass 1 and one deck polaron sulls 3 of size, polaron sull 3 is clipped between two electro-conductive glass 1, and two electro-conductive glass 1 are separated, the one side that electro-conductive glass 1 is adjacent with polaron sull 3 has conducting film 2, the setting of staggering of two electro-conductive glass 1, one end margin of electro-conductive glass 1 and polaron sull 3 justified margins, the other end protrudes from polaron sull 3, the conducting film 2 that two electro-conductive glass 1 protrude from polaron sull 3 parts respectively with battery just, negative wire connects.
Solar cell conductive glass 1 of the present invention is as electrode, and electro-conductive glass 1 is made up of plate glass and conducting film, and conducting film is arranged on a surface of plate glass.Semiconductor light absorbent is made up of polaron sull 3, under the irradiation of the sunlight of sunlight incident direction 6, between anode 4 and battery cathode 5, can produce voltage and current.
The preparation method of the semiconductor solar cell based on interface polaron effect of the present invention is: adopt electro-conductive glass that two sizes are identical as electrode, adopt polaron oxide as polaron semi-conducting material, preparation process is:
Step 1, grinding polycrystalline polaron oxide raw material, material purity is 99.9%.Polaron oxide is put into mill and grind 1-1.5 hours, the granularity of oxide reaches below 10 microns, and guarantees uniform particles.When grinding, take acetone as solvent, the addition of acetone is according to conventional abrasive solvents consumption.
Step 2, get a slice electro-conductive glass, be provided with one of the conducting film placement that faces up, one end of this electro-conductive glass is as reserved electrode, along edge Continuous pressing device for stereo-pattern on conducting film of this reserved end, the adhesive tape gross thickness of pasting is 10-100 micron, polaron oxide mixed liquor ground step 1 is evenly spread upon on the conducting film of this electro-conductive glass, control smearing thickness, make polaron oxide coating equal with adhesive tape; The adhesive tape gross thickness of pasting is the thickness of sull, and the thickness of sull is feasible in 10-100 micrometer range.
Step 3, after the acetone volatilization in polaron oxide coating, separately get an electro-conductive glass, be provided with one of the conducting film setting that faces down, and the edge that makes its one end and the polaron oxide coating justified margin that posts adhesive tape one side, this electro-conductive glass is covered on polaron oxide coating, polaron oxide coating is clipped between the conducting film of two electro-conductive glass, according to the structure shown in Fig. 1, two electro-conductive glass are pressed into battery, two electro-conductive glass protrude from the part of polaron oxide coating as the positive and negative electrode lead-in wire terminals of battery.After compressing, can two electro-conductive glass be fixed with usual manner, for example, adopt any feasible mode such as fixture, fixture.
Step 4, throw off the adhesive tape on electro-conductive glass, two electro-conductive glass are put into Muffle furnace together with the polaron oxide coating being clipped in the middle heat-treats, by heat treatment, polaron oxide coating is made to polaron sull, heat treatment method is: be warming up to gradually 300 ℃ with the heating rate of 1 ℃/min, then 300 ℃ of insulations 60 minutes, naturally be cooled to afterwards room temperature, heat treatment finishes rear taking-up, makes solar cell again.
In the present invention, polaron oxide can adopt red schorl phase titanium dioxide, iron oxide or tungsten oxide etc. to have the oxide of polaron effect.Wherein preferably adopt red schorl phase titanium dioxide, the solar cell stability that red schorl phase titanium dioxide is made is better, and photovoltage is higher.The solar cell stability that red schorl phase titanium dioxide is made is better, and photovoltage is higher.Red schorl phase titanium dioxide is a kind of typical polaron semiconductor, almost there is no exciton effect under normal temperature.Under illumination condition, if this battery shows significant photovoltage, its photovoltage can not originate from exciton mechanism, and can only originate from polaron mechanism.
According to the method described above, adopt red schorl phase titanium dioxide as polaron semi-conducting material, making thickness is the titanium deoxid film of 50 microns (being the adhesive tape control of 50 microns by known thickness), and electro-conductive glass is selected ITO.Show through measuring, this polaron titanium dioxide solar cell is at AM1.5 standard solar light irradiation (1000 W/m
